Mine, is N3IWVC and if you were to turn your screen upside down it would read DAMIEN which is my first name. I know lame right... but is yours cooler? let us all know.
I am not liable for any damages to your screen if you did attempt to turn it over.
Reapus (Said like: Ree-pis) was a nickname given to me by an old .Dot Hack friend.

Origin of Usernames...

Post by Zeroke »

As the title says, what is the origin of your username? Why do you select such a name? Is the name special to you, or just a random name you thought of?...

My name, Zeroke, comes from an old imaginary world I thought of years ago. The world was a mix of characters and places I had seen in video games, televison, etc. I was the main protagonist, and I decided to name my "other persona" Zeroke...since Steven (my real name) wouldn't cut it.

What's your origin?...

However, as far as MMOs are concerned, I will usually go with a name that's more deep-rooted in mythology, or with a name
that sounds german...
I take what I said back.
My current MMO name is inspired by cough sweets :E

Databug- well this one is obvious, as it is pure .hack// related, and it does reference to me being a PC tech.

other names i have gone under

Megaman5000 - because i like megaman and powerman5000

Comander Starlin- because i am an old westwood fan from the days of C&C alot of people know me under this name here as i have used and still use this name for just about everything, hence the Starlin MIX

Wow I never once posted in here! 0_0 Well any how I chose my username out of randomness. I like looking at different japanese names and there meanings or the kanjis and making up my own names. And well I came across this one and like it alot and decided I would make it my user name....only now I forget what it means. ^_^; (Gaint epic fail!!!) Though I am sure its on my list of favorite Japanese names I have laying around my pile of other important papers.

FFR comes from a shortened version of a username I use on many different forums, FarFromRedemption. The username originally came from my very first account on gaiaonline. I have since lost interest in gaiaonline to persue other sites geared towards my interests. IE DotHackers.net

Mine comes from one of my favorite books, Imajica. John "Furie" Zackarius, a.k.a Gentle, was arguably my favorite character from it. I also use the names Gentle and Judith (Judith is my second* favorite character)
